Some thoughts on this strange period in history where the 20th Century begins to merge with the 21st Century…
We have lived through a dark aberration in human “progress”– an almost sudden period of unimaginable bounty… not the usual SLOW climb as we saw with the dawn of agriculture.
Not since the Industrial Revolution have the waters of progress been so muddied.
These first two decades of the 21st century we have witnessed the end of sustainable progress as we became drunk with excessive life choices and tinny technology.
It’s the end of the space age… even while delusional billionaires talk of colonizing Mars… returning to the moon…all with a blind faith in their newly created synthetic god —A.I.
Like an estuary (only deep and dark) where salt water joins with fresh water… we are a BRAKEN people… witnessing an irreversible distancing from the land; a sustainable and reverent relationship with nature... closer to “the source” which was once an available option.
But now we’re also facing the dissolution of technology… the breakdown of “progress”… so we, as a society are left with no comfort or safety net in the big urban places or the sanitized suburbs…
Our only hope will be in finding renewed interest in small, local communities of people who still hold a flame for honest and purposeful living. Who are able to produce and teach… providing a period of “unlearning” and a chance for renewed harmony with nature and all that kept us human…
But the population will have to decrease. It will decrease through war and famine and plague… only then will those few remnants who still carry an inner pilot light, be able to re-introduce humans to their better angels…

It’s 2018 and I’m eavesdropping at Starbucks…
Sitting at Starbucks alone. Can’t help overhearing many of the conversations going on at the tables closest to me — I feign reading a magazine while actually eavesdropping.
The conversations invariably center around business transactions — 2 or three people with laptops scrolling through an excel spreadsheet, scheming new prospects, discussing incentives to sell more of their product ( actually it’s usually a “service”— and often an insurance company or some pyramid scheme).
At one table 2 women just snapped shut their laptops at the exact same time and congratulate each other for “accomplishing a lot this morning” (they were here well before me).
But at another table, a man has his laptop facing a woman who he is (rather loudly) coaching through a series of Powerpoint slides. The subject matter is stunningly different from the usual stuff I hear. He is some sort of medical pro and is discussing graphic childbirth procedures ( sounds like a modern “Call the Midwife” script!)
I want to believe that he is training her in useful medical procedures, but I suspect that he is actually giving her “useful” talking points” to add to her sales toolkit for selling some new drug or service to obstetricians or new parents. While making his pitch he’s saying things like ” ... then shift their attention back to the baby! ... the risks to the baby... the baby could die!” And he chuckles throughout this!!
My stomach is turning. I can’t stand listening to this stuff any longer—- I gather my things and head out.
Capitalism is indeed a soul sucking system!!!
